Comments are comments to me. You shouldn't have things that the code
relies on within comments. XML deliberatly do this with <!-- this is a
comment --> and <? this is a processing instruction ?>.
How about some form of enclosing block syntax. I don't see why one sql
"block" should be considered to be one statment. I might want to have
multiple statements in one block.
sql delete_user($name)
{
delete * from users where name=$name;
delete * from accesses where name=$name;
}
Later.
Mark.
